Deteronòm 5
1 Moyiz fè tout pèp Izrayèl la sanble, epi li di yo: -Nou menm pèp Izrayèl, koute lòd ak kòmandman m'ap fè nou tande jòdi a. Aprann yo byen. Pa janm bliye yo pou nou ka toujou fè tou sa yo mande nou fè.
Then Moses summoned all Israel and said to them: Hear, O Israel, the statutes and ordinances that I declare in your hearing this day. Learn them and observe them carefully.
2 Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te siyen yon kontra ak nou sou Mòn Orèb la.
The LORD our God made a covenant with us at Horeb.
3 Se pa t' avèk zansèt nou yo sèlman Seyè a te pase kontra a, men avèk nou menm tou, nou tout k'ap viv isit la jòdi a.
He did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with all of us who are alive here today.
4 Bondye te rete sou mòn lan, nan mitan dife a. Li te pale ak nou fas pou fas.
The LORD spoke with you face to face out of the fire on the mountain.
5 Lè sa a, mwen menm mwen te kanpe nan mitan, Seyè a yon bò, nou menm yon bò, pou m' te rapòte nou tout pawòl Seyè a te di, paske nou te pè dife a, nou pa t' vle moute sou mòn lan. Men sa Seyè a te di:
At that time I was standing between the LORD and you to declare to you the word of the LORD, because you were afraid of the fire and would not go up the mountain. And He said:
6 Se mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip kote nou te esklav la.
“I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
7 Piga nou sèvi lòt bondye pase mwen menm sèlman.
You shall have no other gods before Me.
8 Piga nou janm fè ankenn estati ni ankenn pòtre ki sanble bagay ki anwo nan syèl la osinon bagay ki sou latè ou ankò nan dlo anba tè a.
You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in the heavens above, on the earth below, or in the waters beneath.
9 Piga nou adore yo, ni piga nou sèvi yo. Paske, mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye nou an, mwen se yon Bondye ki fè jalouzi anpil. Lè yon moun rayi m', mwen fè pitit li, pitit pitit li ak pitit pitit pitit li yo peye sa.
You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on their children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,
10 Men, lè yon moun renmen m', lè li fè sa m' mande l' fè, m'ap moutre l' jan moun renmen l' tou ansanm ak tout pitit pitit li yo pandan mil jenerasyon.
but showing loving devotion to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep My commandments.
11 Piga nou janm nonmen non Seyè a, Bondye nou an, an jwèt osinon pou bay manti, paske mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, mwen p'ap manke pini moun ki nonmen non m' pou gremesi.
You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not leave anyone unpunished who takes His name in vain.
12 Toujou chonje jou repo a pou nou mete l' apa pou Bondye, jan mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te ban nou lòd fè l' la.
Observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy, as the LORD your God has commanded you.
13 N'a travay sis jou. Lè sa a, n'a fè tou sa nou gen pou nou fè.
Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
14 Men, setyèm jou a, se jou repo Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Jou sa a, nou p'ap fè ankenn travay, ni nou menm, ni pitit gason nou, ni pitit fi nou, ni fanm ni gason k'ap travay lakay nou, ni bèf nou, ni bourik nou, ni ankenn nan lòt bèt nou genyen, ni moun lòt nasyon ki rete lakay nou. Konsa, ni fanm ni gason k'ap travay lakay nou ka pran repo menm jan ak nou.
but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God, on which you must not do any work—neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your ox or donkey or any of your livestock, nor the foreigner within your gates, so that your manservant and maidservant may rest as you do.
15 N'a toujou chonje se esklav nou te ye nan peyi Lejip la. E se mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki te vin delivre nou ak fòs ponyèt mwen, ak gwo kouraj mwen. Se poutèt sa, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te pase nou lòd pou nou pa bliye jou repo a.
Remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD your God brought you out of there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm. That is why the LORD your God has commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.
16 Respekte manman nou ak papa nou jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te pase nou lòd la, pou nou ka viv lontan ak kè kontan nan peyi Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te ban nou.
Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, so that your days may be long and that it may go well with you in the land that the LORD your God is giving you.
17 Piga nou janm touye moun.
You shall not murder.
18 Piga nou janm fè adiltè.
You shall not commit adultery.
19 Piga nou janm pran sa ki pa pou nou.
You shall not steal.
20 Piga nou janm fè manti sou frè parèy nou nan tribinal.
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
21 Piga nou janm pote lanvi sou madanm frè parèy nou. Pa mete lide nou ni sou kay li, ni sou jaden li, ni sou gason osinon fanm k'ap travay lakay li, ni sou bèf li, ni sou bourik li, ni sou anyen ki pou frè parèy nou.
You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house or field, or his manservant or maidservant, or his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”
22 Men pawòl Seyè a te di nou lè nou tout nou te sanble sou mòn lan. Li te rete nan mitan dife a, anndan gwo nwaj nwa a, li pale byen fò ak nou. Li pa di anyen ankò apre sa. Li ekri kòmandman sa yo sou de wòch plat, epi li ban mwen yo.
The LORD spoke these commandments in a loud voice to your whole assembly out of the fire, the cloud, and the deep darkness on the mountain; He added nothing more. And He wrote them on two tablets of stone and gave them to me.
23 Men, lè pèp la tande bri vwa ki t'ap soti nan nwaj nwa a, lè yo wè mòn lan ki t'ap pran dife, yo vin jwenn mwen ansanm ak tout chèf branch fanmi yo ak tout chèf fanmi yo.
And when you heard the voice out of the darkness while the mountain was blazing with fire, all the heads of your tribes and your elders approached me,
24 Yo di m' konsa: -Koulye a, nou wè Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Nou wè jan li gen pouvwa, jan li merite yo fè lwanj li. Nou tande vwa l' ap pale nan mitan dife a. Jòdi a nou wè tout bon vre Bondye ka pale ak moun san yo pa mouri pou sa.
and you said, “Behold, the LORD our God has shown us His glory and greatness, and we have heard His voice out of the fire. Today we have seen that a man can live even if God speaks with him.
25 Bon. Koulye a, poukisa pou n' al riske tèt nou ankò avèk gwo dife sa a ki ka kankannen nou? Eske nou p'ap mouri si nou tande vwa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap pale yon lòt fwa ankò?
But now, why should we die? For this great fire will consume us, and we will die, if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any longer.
26 Eske gen moun sou latè ki ka rete vivan toujou lè yo fin tande Bondye tout bon an rete nan mitan dife pou pale ak yo, jan sa te rive nou an?
For who of all flesh has heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the fire, as we have, and survived?
27 Ou mèt pwoche ou menm, pou ou tande tou sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va di. Apre sa, w'a tounen vin di nou sa li te di ou. N'a koute ou, epi n'a fè tou sa l' di nou fè.
Go near and listen to all that the LORD our God says. Then you can tell us everything the LORD our God tells you; we will listen and obey.”
28 Seyè a te tande sa nou te di a, li di m' konsa: Mwen tande sa pèp la di la a. Yo gen rezon.
And the LORD heard the words you spoke to me, and He said to me, “I have heard the words that these people have spoken to you. They have done well in all that they have spoken.
29 Mwen ta swete yo toujou gen bon santiman nan kè yo pou yo ka gen krentif pou mwen, pou yo kenbe lòd mwen yo, konsa yo ta viv ak kè kontan tout tan, ni yo menm ni pitit yo.
If only they had such a heart to fear Me and keep all My commandments always, so that it might be well with them and with their children forever.
30 Ale di yo yo mèt tounen anba tant yo.
Go and tell them: ‘Return to your tents.’
31 Men ou menm, ou va rete isit la avè m'. M'a ba ou tout kòmandman, tout lòd ak tout prensip pou ou moutre yo pou yo ka swiv yo nan peyi m'ap ba yo a.
But you stand here with Me, that I may speak to you all the commandments and statutes and ordinances you are to teach them to follow in the land that I am giving them to possess.”
32 Veye kò nou pou nou viv jan Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te mande nou viv la. Pa vire ni adwat ni agoch.
So be careful to do as the LORD your God has commanded you; you are not to turn aside to the right or to the left.
33 N'a mache dwat nan chemen Bondye nou an, Seyè a, mete devan nou an. Se konsa n'a gen lavi, n'a gen kè kontan. N'a viv lontan nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou rete a.
You must walk in all the ways that the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess.
